Conditions
Keywords
Anaesthesia, Technique, extraoral, Landmarks
Brief summary
This study introduces and evaluates a new technique for inferior alveolar nerve blocking.
Detailed description
The study addresses a novel technique to anaesthetize the inferior alveolar nerve depending on extraoral landmarks. Volunteers will receive bilateral blocks and evaluation of the success rate and positive aspiration rate will be performed.
Interventions
blocking the inferior alveolar nerve using extroral landmarks

| presence of numbness (by questionnaire) | 3-10 minutes | evaluation of the presence of numbness in the anatomical area supplied by the inferior alveolar nerve |
| absence of pain (by probing) | 3-10 minutes | evaluation of absence of pain in the anatomical area supplied by the inferior alveolar nerve |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| positive aspiration rate | 1 second | evaluation of the presence of blood on drawing in two perpendicular planes |
